Great all rounder!

I opted for a new washer-dryer as I was in desperate need for an upgrade! As a new home owner, this was all completely new to me! The AEG L7WBG851 is a stylish machine - sleek and minimalistic, the design and layout isn’t over complicated. It fits into the kitchen well and isn’t a complete eyesore to my small, compact kitchen!
Initially it was a little overwhelming with all the different settings/controls, however after 10 minutes of scanning the simple instructions it was easy enough to figure out! The ProSense is a particular highlight for me - essentially weighing your washing before the cycle begins, it gives you a warning if the machine is overloaded and a further 30 seconds to remove a couple of items before the load starts. Great to avoid damage to the machine from overloading! It also adjusts the wash time based on the weight of your load, which is great for only using the amount of energy needed to clean your clothes.
The new DualSense technology also allows you to mix fabrics and wash a number of different materials at once which is a game changer and saves time washing that one delicate wool jumper on its own!!
Every load has come out sparkling clean so far and I have been impressed with the washing capabilities with this machine! The steam function is also great when I don’t have the energy to get the iron out, just be sure to swiftly take out the garments and hang them up as soon as the program ends and the creases drop right out.
I have been really impressed by how quiet the machine runs - living in a first floor flat I was worried that the noise would disturb neighbours (particularly when drying), however it is very quiet and absolutely no movement/shaking as with some older models!
However, there are a few drawbacks - with an 8kg drum capacity, I expected to be able to wash large loads at once, however the majority of cycles have a smaller max load (particularly synthetics which is only 3kg) meaning that washing is needed to be done in smaller quantities. I probably wouldn’t recommend this machine to larger families that need to wash large loads frequently, however its perfect for smaller households.
Some loads also require a second run of the drying function - however this doesn’t bother me too much, I think it’s to be expected from washer dryers and requires a bit of playing around to find the best setting for me!
Overall a great all rounder - I would definitely recommend this machine and wouldn’t hesitate to buy AEG again!
